The famous proverb ‘Pen is Mightier than the Sword' was first written by Edward Bulwer- Lytton, which later became highly popular across the world. Everyone knows that a sword is a weapon with sharp edge while pen is a writing instrument with no edge. But the power of the pen is extremely greater than a sword. What a sharp edge of a sword can't achieve; can easily be achieved with the help of a tiny tip of a pen. While a pen and sword cannot be compared because pen is used for writing purposes and sword is used for fighting purposes.

Even though, one party in the war may win but the loss of several lives is the ultimate loss of even the winning party; whereas writing is harmony, peace and it is priceless.
